Congratulations! Your little one is turning one this month—what a special occasion! As your baby transitions from infancy to toddlerhood, there are so many exciting developments on the horizon, including first words, first steps, and possibly even their first tantrum. It’s a time filled with both joy and challenges, and you’re not alone in feeling a mix of emotions as this milestone approaches.
At 12 months, your baby’s development is truly remarkable. Typically, babies at this age sleep around 11 hours each night, often sleeping through the night, and they usually still take two naps during the day. This routine can help you catch your breath as you navigate the adventure of parenthood. Remember, toddlers may look grown-up, but they still have a lot of baby left in them. There are more fun times and precious moments to come as you both explore this new stage together.
